Gary spent all his life in the construction business, first with his father and mother, then later with his wife and children and their families.

Gary and his family were charter members of Eagle Heights Baptist Church where he assisted with its construction and numerous community service events. He was generally a man of few words but when he did speak his words were known to be true and honest.

Gary loved spending time with his family and friends, sometimes it was over a nice steak, at an OSU or OKC Thunder game or at his weekly Monday Night Bible study. Gary loved animals whether it was with the horses team penning or showing cattle with his kids.

Gary was preceded in death by his parents and his sister Marilyn Overholt.
